Wye Lodge is situated on a delightful little campsite with access to the River Wye. Friendly yet non intrusive and pet friendly. The lodge was comfortable with everything you need and is a great base for discovering this stunning part of the Wye Valley. And after some lovely walks and days out a soak in the hot tub was an added bonus. Highly recommended, we had a really relaxing holiday with our dog.

Great lodge for a fishing holiday, the included river was a nice touch. At the time of booking, I wasn't aware that the lodge was on a caravan park but it didn't affect us too much as it was nice and quiet. Although, I can imagine that school holidays could get quite busy/loud. The lodge was clean, and the communication was good. The only recommendations I can think of would be some advice on fishing as it wasn't clear what the boundaries were, and also to update the TV as it was quite aged and the remote wasn't working 100%. Also, the advert listing mentioned it has Sky... It has a Sky box but only with the basic Freeview channels and no actual Sky channel. This was only a slight isue but would have made the trip a bit nicer during the rainy/miserable evenings. Lastly, it would have been amazing to have a sheltered outside area for BBQs when it's raining. The hot tub was a great feature, and it stank of chlorine so it was reasuring that it was treated.
